This week I have handpicked some great print outs that you can use. I have two great games for you later on but for now check out these cool birthday party invitations. They have been added to our awesome Party Invitation library.

I love this series of blog posts, it all started a year or two ago when I took the family to Warwick Castle which was a brilliant day out and I thought I would create a bunch of activities to go along with it. Since then I have also covered Ancient Egypt too so this is our third historical adventure.

This week I'm going to delve into some really cool Pokemon Party Decorations, then we have two more weeks of pure Pokemon games and crafts for the kids. When you put all of these blog posts together you'll be ready to make the most awesome Pokemon Party ever!

love being inspired and I took loads of inspiration from this film and that old school circus vibe. I like to take inspiration and run with and create something new and unique. Here I am a few years back presenting my take on spinning plates, this gets a brilliant reaction at parties.

Pokemon Go has been nothing short of a phenomenon! So I thought I would have a go at showing you some great ideas for a Pokemon Party. Obviously the kids could just play Pokemon Go at a Pokemon Party but I wanted to go a little further than that. Every week this month I will bring a bunch of ideas so that you can build the best Pokemon Party ever.

Im back! Not for long though I'm afraid, im still working on the studio space, I can't wait to share with everyone what I have created. With the whole country getting excited about the Royal Wedding of Prince Harry (Henry) to Meghan Markle I thought I would come up with a bunch of great ideas for fun at home whilst you have the wedding on the TV or fun you can do before you pop out to one of the many public events going on around the country.

It's our final exploration into space and we are going to look into some great birthday party decorations, cakes and free printables this week. Lets start at the beginning of planning a party with some free Party invitations.

It’s time to get pre-historic and have some more fun with dinosaurs. This week we are going to share some great dinosaur themed snacks and treats. July is a super busy month for us, we have nearly 20 school shows to perform my Magic Show at plus dozens of birthday parties around Gloucestershire and we have started a new colouring competition too where you can win this amazing magic set. This is the biggest prize we have ever given away! The colouring competition is open to all kids under the age of 13yrs in the U.K.

This week I am going to share loads of great activities and crafts, kicking off with these great colouring pages, it's been a while since I included any colouring pages so if you like these and would like more just use the search bar above.

Welcome to another brand new series covering Dinosaur fun, much like pirates dinosaurs never seem to really go out of fashion but it does have spikes in popularity. Over the next few blog posts we are going to cover dozens of fun crafts, games, recipes and party ideas you can use to either throw an amazing Dino Party or just have some fun at home with your little Triceratops.

Hello and Welcome to our final journey with Unicorns. This time we are going to share some great Party ideas, when you combine these with all of our other Unicorn fun you will be able to put together an amazing birthday party.

This year we are deviding up the Summer weeks into a schedule and today it’s dedicated to learn it Tuesday. So as always I have scoured the brilliant Wonder Kids website for other learning activities for you before we get into the new ideas.

Welcome to our second week of Unicorn fun, this week I am going to show you some great Unicorn games, these will work great for birthday party games or for just some fun at the weekend or during the school holidays.

This month we are going to try and have some fun with Unicorns, inspired by a new character in my shows called Dazzle. She’s a Unicorn who loves to sing and we have a whole bunch of fun with her. If you are a new reader than you should know that I write almost everyday, at least a little, we post new ideas every Monday and Thursday so make sure you come back regularly for loads of great fun ideas to try with kids

I’m loving this project Disney is working on to take all of their animated classics and turn them into live action films. I think it started with Cinderella which was ok, Beauty and the Beast was brilliant, Dumbo was umm ok and when I first saw the initial teaser for the new live action Aladdin

We’ve reached the final week of our music fun. This week we are going to have some fun putting together a Music Festival Kids Party and I’ll show you how to make your own Maracas. Often overlooked as a child's toy these maracas are in so many songs and add a very odd rhythm to music, a little like reggae music where you get that extra little beat. Here is a good example of some music with Maracas

Another week and another chance for us to get our kids into music. This time I have included a drum. I find that out of all the instruments kids love, drums are at the top. This drum is great because I think it will take kids a few attempts to really get the rhythm of it. When things present a little challenge to kids they like it more once they have overcome it. It comes from being proud and feeling accomplished.

We're back with another great exploration of this month's theme. This week I have been looking into running a complete Knights Party. Lets kick off with some great party invitations, these are free to download and use as you need them.
